    That is one cool and beautiful bike! I know you must be SOOO happy. (note pink smileys)

    I saw you in your sleeveless tank and thought "Geez, does she live in California or something?"...Hah! We're piling on the wool layers over here!

    Happy riding and rolling....

    Nice bike. I hope it keeps you warm
    it's not warm here either. High winds and after a lovely day of BLUE SKY
    we've got wet dark nasty weather.

    Did you have a bike fit done? have fun, enjoy the bike.

    She's gorgeous! And you look perfect with her in your pink jersey. Definitely "pretty in pink" -- both of you!

    It's gorgeous!! *slurp*

    You've also inspired me to go with the pink bar tape! I was going to replace the black but that just seems too boring now (my bike is black and white with tiny pink accents)!

    beautiful bike!

    I hope you and the bike enjoy many many fun miles together! And I, too, envy the sleevless jersey at Thanksgiving! I just ordered some shoe covers because I'm tired of the cold air blowing through on the downhills - send some warm east, would ya?

    Pink Rules!!

    Karen,

    I love the bike - I just got the 2007 Orbea Orca in black and white and have pink bar tape on it. Unfortunately I am too tall to fit the WSD Diva that Orbea makes in pink and black. I want pink water bottle cages on mine as well - where did you get yours???

    Enjoy your ride - my last bike was a Trek carbon and it was so smooth....... You will certainly stand out in a crowd on that bike!! And - you can keep you man from riding it too!!! (my boyfriend and I ride the same frame size - and even the pink bar tape hasn't kept him from the Orca)
